Basil 9 Posted September 11, 2015 (edited) Here are a few of the better pics from my recent liveaboard trip on the Red Sea Aggressor. I learned a LOT as I practiced, and I can't wait for the next trip, so that I can learn even more! -Basil Egypt Red Sea (9 of 22) by Basil Kiwan, on Flickr Scorpionfish - he was really well concealed! Egypt Red Sea (14 of 22) by Basil Kiwan, on Flickr I would love it if someone could tell me what this fish is. I assume it is some type of triggerfish?? Egypt Red Sea (7 of 22) by Basil Kiwan, on Flickr Ehrenberg's Snapper schooling with some Goatfish Egypt Red Sea (8 of 22) by Basil Kiwan, on Flickr Blue Spotted Stingray Egypt Red Sea (10 of 22) by Basil Kiwan, on Flickr I would also really like to know what this guy is? He is awfully cute, is he a baby grouper??? Here is the full album on Flickr https://flic.kr/s/aHskizroyC Edited September 11, 2015 by Basil Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimG 62 Posted September 11, 2015 Hi Basil Nice pics. Where were you in the Red Sea? If you get the chance, head down to the southern end: St John's and Furys. Really good down there. The last pic is a Forster's Hawkfish - common in the Red Sea - otherwise known as Paracirrhites forsteri. 14 is an Orangespine Surgeon fish - Naso lituratus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Basil 9 Posted September 13, 2015 I was on the southern itinerary of the Red Sea Aggressor, so I think we got to St John's. Thank you for the compliment, and for letting me know what my unidentified fish were!!! I updated my Flickr gallery with the species names. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdpriest 114 Posted September 14, 2015 (edited) Your second unknown fish is a Forster's Hawkfish: if you have a close-up you might see the characteristic fan at the end of each dorsal fin ray. They love to swim off just as you focus... Edited September 14, 2015 by tdpriest Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
